About the Item

Title: Historic Miniature Watercolor of Bristol University Tower and Art Gallery by Jack Grunwell, 20th century British artist Medium: Watercolor on thin card, unframed Measurements: 2.75 inches (height) x 3.25 inches (width) Condition: Very good and highly presentable Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work in Bristol, England. Description: This stunning watercolor by Jack Grunwell captures the iconic Bristol University Wills Memorial Tower and the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, two of the city’s most recognizable architectural landmarks. Completed in 1925, the Wills Memorial Tower, part of the University of Bristol, is an outstanding example of Neo-Gothic architecture, while the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, built in 1905, showcases a striking Edwardian Baroque façade. Grunwell’s delicate brushwork brings the historic grandeur of these buildings to life, with intricate details in the arched windows, ornate stonework, and imposing tower. The presence of figures in period dress, horse-drawn carriages, and birds soaring above enhances the sense of movement and nostalgia, transporting the viewer to a bygone era. The soft muted color palette and atmospheric sky lend a timeless charm to the composition. This piece is ideal for collectors of British architectural art, university landmarks, and historic cityscapes, offering a sophisticated and elegant portrayal of Bristol’s rich cultural heritage.
